I snapped these pics on the cell just now when I went home for Lunch. Is there an easy way to get this little guy out?

Well you can remove the headlight and then shake it out from the hole for the H7 bulb.
Removing the headlight is pretty easy; http://tis.spaghetticoder.org/s/view.pl?1/08/63/85

How the hell did it get in there???

Sure it's a bee, looks more like it's aggressive cousin to me?

Thanks Antti,

I just printed those instructions out
:twoup:

I appreciate it! Hopefully I can get him out this afternoon.

I have no clue how he got in there... I just hope he isn't wedged or stuck, he hasn't moved at all since I first noticed him a couple weeks ago.

Don't worry about it, he will probably leave on his own after he wakes up.

Honestly, it looks cute sleeping their warmed up by the light.

Maybe it thought the reflector was its honeycomb, lol.

That sucks lol...maybe you can take off the headlight access hole and put some compressed air in to at least get that wasp moved so you can't see it lol...

yes you can do this. you can access a hole from the top of the headlight - there should be a circle cap that you can screw off. tape two of the air compressor straws together and bend it. after it falls down to the bottom section of the headlight, you can keep shaking the headlight until it falls out.

hope that helps.. i had dust stuck in that section of the headlight.
